Clement Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 I don't get it. I've got a local who plays Pandora really exclusively, and anything I run into the crew is brutally murdered normally around turn 3 in an orgy of Inflict pulses. Short of observing at least a 7 inch gap between EVERYTHING I can possibly field, I'm flat out of ideas on how to deal with this lady. He basically crams her down my throat, and Resser's "meh" wp stats more or less end it for me in a pile of bodies. It doesn't matter which limited upgrade he takes, the result is still her darting into enough models that I care about and melting all of it over the course of a turn. Anyone managed to turn the tables on her and actually *STOP* this thing? Because right now she's just table flippingly infuriating to deal with. I honestly am out of ideas.

Patzer Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Who do you play in Ressers? And what kind of Pandora do your opponent usually take; box or voices, Fear Given Form, Aether Conection, Fugue State? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirial Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Pandora hates Slice & Dice. She also hates Black Blood. Also, if you have a lot of dead bodies: Bring Spare Parts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zFiend Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Oh she hates Rogue Necro too. Ml7 with a 4/5/6 track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kogan Style Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Molly - making Belles and Horrors/Spirits Black blood all over her Sybelle - shoot a friendly or nearby Sorrow and blast damage onto her Punk - Slice 'n' Dice Crooligans - Lower her WP by 1, nasty combo: cast blistering fog and then black blood (from Molly) & Slice 'n' Dice for minimum 2 damage (from Crooligan failing Df duel and handing out 2 from Black Blood) to potentially 6 damage (2 from Crooligan, 3+1 from Slice and blistering fog) Pandora would have to use 2 soulstones to prevent the damage as they are two separate damage sources. Ouch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patzer Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 And if it hits her once, it gets an extra attack. Hah, I have to remember that scenario. If I got a crap hand, it might be better to resist with defense and just hope for the best prevention. Might be better than another attack.

Phototropic Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 yin or molly's ability to hand out -ve flips could be useful. I usually go hunting with izamu but she's seems to always be skipping/ pushing away so i definitely feel your pain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wake of Godzilla Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Seamus if you have access to him - WP -2 can really hurt and then kill of her support models. Izamu can also ignore WP duels in his turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilH Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 See now I would love my opponent to bring a Rogue Necro. Any good Pandora player makes it a priority target, and Pandoras threat range is bigger so you can almost always get the first attack in. 4/5/6 becomes 5/6/7 with misery so 2 hits = auto kill. Seamus has always proven tough to play against from my experience. Yin also. And Nurses if my hand is weak, recently got paralyzed for 3 turns in a row from a yin/nurse combo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork Top Hat Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Use the belle's lure to pull her tightly clumped models apart, when kept separate they'll be easier to deal with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilH Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Just checked its 3/5/6 not 4/5/6. Makes a little difference, but probably in Pandoras favour rather than the RN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_acolyte Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 I am NOT a Resur, but I found the best way to kill Pandora is to start dismantling her crew, first the poltergeist and weaver widow, then sorrows and finally her. Most of the ones I see lack a heavy hitter, which make little sense to me... sometimes you just have to kill someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 Pandora IS the heavy hitter 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilH Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 She sure is! Sometimes though i've found myself wishing i'd brought another hitter, usually late game when she's off doing breakthrough or Entourage. Your killing her crew tactic would serve you well against a thematic crew, but if she goes down the solo wrecking ball route, she cares little. I tend to run a pretty tough list around her so as not to give up anything easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I suggested summoning it. Nico and Molly can both summon and activate it before Pandora can react. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilH Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 I didn't see where you said summon one, my bad. Still, would Nico need a RJ? And Molly 4 corpse markers? Even then i'd be very surprised if one took her out, a scratch at best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
